Lord Nolan

Nolan was adopted through Foal Train and is a pmu foal (product of the premarine industry).  He is a Thoroughbred / Draft cross.  When I first started looking at PMU foals and found Foal Train, I researched the stallions they had listed.  Very quickly, I fell in love with a TB stallion named Polka Man on the "W" farm (Sanway Stock Farm).  He was the most gorgeous horse I had ever seen.  I made up my mind that I MUST have one of his foals - no other stallion would do.  When the foals started hitting the ground, I snatched up the first colt by Polka Man - a gorgeous bay that I named Sir Devlin.  A few weeks later, another colt by him was posted and there was just something about him that I could not get out of my mind.  I tried to figure out how I could afford 2 foals, but there was just no way.  Turns out that Fate had its own plans.  In June, I got a call and was informed that Devlin was killed in a freak accident - he had been struck my lightning.  My heart was broke.  Even though I had never met Devlin in person, he had embedded himself in my heart.  Devlin's death opened up the opportunity for me to get the 2nd foal that I had fallen in love with.  I was amazed that such a gorgeous colt was still available, but for some reason everyone had overlooked this boy.  I reserved colt #0914 and named him Lord Nolan after my favorite uncle.  Nolan has been a true blessing.  Seems that God knows what is best for us and He knew that Nolan was the perfect colt for me.  Nolan will be turning 4 on May 12th and I am preparing  him to start under saddle.  I am beyond blessed having my Roley Poley Noley in my life.  The awkward foal that was overlooked has turned into a stunning gelding.
